No worries I have fallen in love with my DD8 it certainly does what it says on the box! I am a very happy woman. Please thank Simon for me he was such a sweetie and explained things in such a way that this very ‘blonde’ person could understand.

“I have been conducting trials in my garage with the Meaco DD8L Desiccant dehumidifier.

The garage area is 64m2 with two single garage doors and a large window. I moved our Barostar barometer from the house as it has an integral gauge reading % relative humidity.

The garage is closed at nights but open during the day as it is where I carry out my vintage vehicle rebuilding – my hobby.

The dehumidifier was therefore switched off during the day when the doors were open, but switched on at night. Relative humidity readings were noted evening and morning and the volume of water extracted from the air measured and noted. This was done over a 2 week period.

At the start of the trial, the relative humidity was measured at 64%. and the room temperature 23 degrees C. The unit was switched on at 17h00. The following morning the temperature was still 23 degrees C but the relative humidity had dropped to 58%. There was 1,750 litres of water in the container.

That evening the relative humidity was 58% and the machine was again powered up at 17h00. Subsequent to this, the relative humidity dropped to between 50 and 53% every morning and at least 2 litres of water extracted from the air daily.On one occasion, 3 litres of water was in the overnight container!

Previously I was aware that my tool hanging in the rack were rusting, needing constant cleaning and application of WD40 or similar. As part of the trial, I cleaned some tools and left them, unprotected, on the bench. After 2 weeks there was no sign of any surface rust.

In my opinion the machine is highly effective and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anybody who has a need to protect valuable items from the ravages of humidity and rust!
